>Description:
Attempting to install databases/postgresql74-server on an updated
ports tree and version 1.8.2 of portupgrade causes portupgrade to
exit silently. The port should not install as it is marked BROKEN,
but some sort of error should be printed at least. This does not seem
to be the case with all ports however as editors/tea, for example, does
indeed report that the port is broken. I am inclined to believe this is
a problem with portupgrade rather than the port, though I do not know
ruby and am thus incapable of investigating further.
>How-To-Repeat:
portinstall editors/tea
(note error message)

portinstall databases/postgresql74-server
(note no error message)
